The Strip is LIVE tonight at 7:05 p.m. PT with funnyman David Spade, who performs at Planet Hollywood on Aug 30-31 and, in general, twice a month. We'll also be chatting about the hooker that slapped Wynn, the pause that will refresh Echelon and why, oh why, people go to Vegas nightclubs.

Come into the chat room at LVRocks.Com at 7 p.m. or wait until later in the week for the podcast version. Your call.
